Captivated

My heart slows almost to a stop
My eyes held fast by your beauty
When I'm cold your love warms me
When anger is present you calm me
This captivation that consumes my being
No other could suffice
These holes in my soul only to be filled,
By God and you
Goodbyes, never wanting to let go
Could stand in this place for hours on end
Letting go, knowing that it wont be long,
Before I see you again

Heart held fast

Our hearts are put in all the wrong places
Trying to find the place where it fits best
Throwing it around so recklessly
Comeing back to us, mangled
Searching for reform,
Something to restore
A life of suffering, not knowing where to go
Walking along, right into this love
The heart once tattered
Now fits right into your hands
Oblivious to the wonders
Fairy tale made real
Beating ever so fast
In the grasp of your hands
It calms

ThanksGiving Poem

All we do is live and you love us
We mess up but you created us
When we doubt you give us hope
You gave youe one and only son for us
As we are unable to fathom it,
We give you thanks for what you done
Through the thanks we are able to give
Your love, Your word, Your son.
Some have so little,
But yet thanks are still extended
Pockets empty,
But yet they still give.
Letting your light shine through
Like a blazing fire.
Letting our hearts be seen
For what they are.
No words can express our thanks
Truely this is agape love.

Emotions - lead or be led

Emotions shape us
Personalities birthed out of feelings
Given a choice, fork in the road
Be led, or lead
Regretting the things we have done,
While being led by the emotions
Hoping for good things,
As we lead our emotions
The power of these feelings
Overwhelming as it seems
The power if used correctly
Can give self control
The heart, a deceiver
As it would lead you,
Ending up lost, pained
Turn it around and lead the deceiver
Influence the influencer
Things all change

We want or Greed?

Taken for granted the things we have,
Only ever notice,
When they're stripped away.
Materialism has taken over
People bringing up their children in this
Taught self serving
We want, thinking it brings happiness
Across the world they need,
Knowing it will take away the pains
Strongholds of chains, shattered
Midset altered.
Speaking out against this issue
Even though our mouths wont open
Each word dents the chain
Each meaningful thought cracks the rings
Chains now flawed, weakened
Crumbling at the feet, of the people
Who are willing,
To take on the giant we named..
Materialism.
